Hi, everybody
I was having a trouble about MEP part appearance on floor plan. I have something modelled like this:
It's made by one single object:
But on the floor plan it shows the whole element on All Relevant Stories:
So this is the display on every floor plan but I want it to be different on every story. I want the stories to cut the whole structure and show only needed parts on the current level. I don't want to construct it hand-by-hand. Is that possible?
Operating system used: Windows 11
Solved! Go to Solution.

I found a workaround for the issue. I simply draw separate sections for each floor. The ductwork tends to join automatically and form a single object. To bypass this automated behavior, I place the ductwork slightly off to the side so that the reference lines don’t touch. Then, I extend the ducts downward until the arrow displays the hammer symbol. In this configuration, the ducts are not aligned, preventing them from actually merging.
After this "false" connection, I manually drag the duct to match the reference line. As a result, they remain separated with their respective home stories while still being accurately aligned with the reference lines.
Unfortunately it is just workaround way to achieve the result

Have you found a solution? Or is it unsolvable with the software as it currently is? 😞

Hi, did you tried to put "real section" in plant and section?

Not really. I don't know what it means.

Yes, I think the approach of DavitBotchorishvili is the optimal one.
